Temperature Adaptability of DT Connector Cable Assemblies:

Designed to function efficiently across a broad temperature spectrum of -55°C to +125°C, ensuring operational reliability under diverse environmental conditions.

Durability Metrics for DT Connector Cable Assemblies:

Show no electrical or mechanical failures even after 100 cycles of engagement and disengagement, highlighting their robustness.

Insulation Resistance and Environmental Protection Ratings:

• Boast a minimum insulation resistance of 1000 megohms at 25°C.
• Achieve an IP68 rating, indicating superior resistance to water immersion.
• Remain securely locked and intact, withstanding sinusoidal vibration levels of 20 G’s from 10 to 2000 Hz across all axes, with no electrical interruptions exceeding 1 microsecond.
• Demonstrate less than 2 milliamps of current leakage at 1500 volts AC, confirming their dielectric robustness.

Fluid and Moisture Resistance Capabilities:

• Effectively resist damage when exposed to a wide variety of industrial fluids.
• Capable of enduring submersion under three feet of water without compromising electronic functionality or causing leakage, when correctly wired and coupled.

Thermal Cycling Endurance and Material Composition:

• Withstand 20 thermal cycles from -55°C to +125°C without showing signs of cracking, chipping, or leakage.
• The enclosures are made from durable glass-filled PA, grommets from silicone rubber, wedgelocks from glass-filled PBT, and receptacle interfacial seals also utilizing silicone rubber, ensuring the long-term reliability and performance of these assemblies in severe conditions.
